He also stayed in that area. I guess they looked for matches in the same area, matched the probable age and ancestry and then found ‘abandoned’ dna he had left in public places, or his trash or whatever. Then they just matched his actual dna to the crime scene dna.

However...I cannot help but feel that this DNA thing is an unwelcome intrusion into our lives.
What if...an insurance company "discovered" via DNA triangulation that a particular family was very susceptible to some sort of costly disease that kicks in around middle age (heart disease, maybe?) and began to raise premiums based on what they found in said triangulation findings?

It's one thing to find your relatives via DNA, it's another to have that relative adversely effected by the findings, without them having given permission for sharing the findings.
An interesting legal question...one that will eventually rear it's ugly head.
Do not misconstrue anything I've written to be a defense for this murderous monster...it is not...I just find it interesting from a Constitutional aspect.
